Allen, who had only five points and two steals before the
intermission, led a late charge by the Bulls after Graham hit from
long range to put Stetson ahead 57-56 with 6:27 to go. The junior
college transfer put USF ahead with a pair of free throws, then
scored off a steal by Collins.

Minutes later, Allen punctuated a six-point run with two more
free throws, a pair of steals and a slam dunk to make it 66-61.

Green scored 10 points for the Hatters in a first half that
included five ties and seven lead changes. The teams were even at
35 at halftime. By the end, there were nine ties and the lead
changed hands 15 times.

Stetson scored the first six points coming out of the break for
its biggest lead and was up 50-46 midway through the second half
while outscoring USF by 20 points in the paint and outrebounding
the Bulls by 10.

Five South Florida players combined to score seven times in 15
attempts (46.7 percent) from behind the arc, from where the Bulls
had converted only 29.9 percent (11 of 38) in their first four
games.
